Reloading data for 8x64s?

We had a discussion on 8mm-06 vs., 8x64s on the gun smthing forum. I can find no reloading data on the web, or in any of the six different load books I own. Any one has some loads to share, and please provide FPS>. It would be even better if some one had live data on both....

Thanks, Scout....

150 grain bullet...60 grains IMR-4350
170 grain bullet...52 grains IMR-4064
225 grain bullet...61 grains IMR-4831
57 grains IMR-4350

Consider these max loads...

scout,

I have reload data from French powder
Sp7 = H4895
Tu 5000 = RL 15

170 gr bullet 52 gr of SP7 at 2625 fps
200 gr bullet 56 gr of Tu5000 at 2723 fps

Hope this can help you.

The only manual I have that gives loads for the 8x64 is the Nobel manual. Be007 covered those. You can just start with 8mm-06 starting loads and work up. - Dan

Manuals:
RWS-DNAG (RWS/Bofors powders)
DEVA (many powders)
Nobel Sport (Vectan powders)
And - of course - one can use US and Australian data for the 8mm-06 with little alteration.

As to velocities:
DEVA give 840-845 m/s max. for the 11,7 grams KS bullet.
813 m/s for the 13,0 grams Barnes X
800 m/s for the 13,0 grams Nosler Partition (max. 832 m/s in the Nobel reloading handbook)
That about describes the rough ballpark range.

On the Web:
Brenneke website (where else ?) ;-)
http://www.brenneke.de

A badly designed website - frames running rampant, windows popping up, a wildly jumping reticle, coded by a geek on ecstasy... *sigh*. Anyhow, the three data can be found via the mouse clicking path English -> service -> reloading data.

The clickable hyperlink to
http://www.norma.cc
worked fine with me (as it did in the past), but I am afraid there are no 8 x 64 S data in their loading tables...

Well, there is an English and a German version on the same website. But as you point out, the downloadable *.doc file (a WORD document thus) with the reloading data is in German only. Its columns list, from left to right, the following entries:

Caliber/ bullet type/ bullet weight/ powder type/ powder manufacturer/ powder weight/ primer/ case manufacturer/ cartridge OAL/ velocity V-3/ measured pressure/ barrel length/ max admissible use pressure per CIP.

Regards,
Carcano

Hey BER007 -

What does SP10 equal? Is it similar to W748?

Thanx,

R-WEST

Quoting from the Nobel Sport manual:

"Sp 10 - Slightly slower than Tubal 3000, this flattened ball powder is meant for the same uses. Charges can be increased due to its favourable weight-to-volume ratio. A well adapted powder for some straight-walled cases or slightly necked large bore cartridges such as .38-55, .35 Remington etc., it also finds application for modern, large-bore dangerous game calibres."

The manual lists loads of the Sp 10 for .222 Rem, .223 Rem, .222 Rem Mag, .22-250, 5,6x57, 6mm PPC, 6mm BR Rem, 7mm BR Rem, .35 Rem, .375 Win, .444 Marlin, .45-70 Govt, .458 Win Mag.

Regards,
Carcano
